[Progress in transplantation of the pancreas (author's transl)].
In the field of pancreas transplantation great progress has been made in recent years. While the transplantation of the whole organ has lost importance, success could be reached with the transplantation of isolated islets of Langerhans and with the segmental pancreas transplantation in experiments and in clinical practice. The present-day research is focused particularly on influencing the antigenicity of the endocrine pancreas tissue and on methodical problems of segmental pancreas transplantation.
